FYI

About 18 months ago a person from another town pulled into my yard on a Harley saying he was referred to me for advice to help get his late grandmothers '54 Hudson Hornet Sdn running after setting more than 40 yrs. Initially I told him I have too many Hudson Projects myselt and could only offer advice.

He kept after me so eventually I went to see it and was suprised to find the under side solid (after setting on a dirt floor!), Air in the tires, beautiful Interior, needing only cleaned, but most suprisingly :huh: only 16,000 miles! The motor was stuck and the body had the typical garage door dings from the elderly woman at the end of her driving days.

Now, 18 months later, after occassional conference calls asking tech advice/direction, the Hornet is all rebuilt and completely road worthy again, and the Owner is a new HET Member ....so Mission Accomplished, Another Hudson on the Road...
